Entry Description

People with red hair are an endangered species. Several biologists take for granted their disappearance from 2020. Their recessive gene is destined to disappear and be absorbed by the dominant genes. I photographed a multitude of people with red hair according to specific characteristics. They have a lot in common, including the presence of freckles caused by a lack of melanin.
